Path of Exile Item Upgrades Upgrades to items are a frequent and important way to improve the performance of numerous items in Path of Exile. They can be a good source of damage or more AD or even more affixes. Rare-grade equipment is often superior to modernized Common or Magic gear due to their high demands. Armor Armor upgrades can be applied to both armor and weapon items. item upgrading boost the effectiveness of the item they are connected to. Upgrades to armor are available in the world of the game and can be purchased from Blacksmiths at any bonfire. They can also be salvaged by using a specialist or higher salvage kits to retrieve upgrades from the items. item upgrades of damage that a piece of armor or weapon can absorb depends on the extent of its upgrades. Upgrading a piece of armor to the highest upgrade level will increase the damage it absorbs. However, it's important to be aware that this upgrade will increase its weight, which will cause it to be heavier than before. There are several types of armor upgrades that are available in the game and they all have distinct effects. Certain upgrades grant armor an additional number of health points, while others make it lighter and more powerful. The type of armor upgrade that an item will receive will be indicated by the name of the upgrade as illustrated in the table below. Some of the upgrades also require magic or a combination of technology and magic, as indicated by the “Magic” and “Hybrids” entries in the table below. Furthermore, some upgrades require a charge to use, which is indicated by an “Charges” entry in the table below. These charges are continuously updated or never expire depending on the upgrade. The cheapest method of upgrading armor is by using Iron Ore, which can be obtained through exploring the surroundings and looting minor loot chests. Titanium is more expensive, however, it is available from the smelters in Orgrimmar and Stormwind City. Some upgrades, like the Reforge or the Hot Potato Books can only be used on armor pieces of the highest level. These upgrades can give significant boost to performance and are worth the cost, especially for single-handed weapons. The player should be aware, however, that upgrading a piece to the max upgrade level will increase its defense value. However, it will also affect the speed and agility of the piece. Therefore, it is not recommended to upgrade most armor pieces above +9, because the increase in defense is typically not worth the weight and power costs of the upgrades required. Weapons Weapon upgrades give players the ability to improve certain aspects of their weapon. For example, an upgrade may improve the damage that is caused by a shotgun's shells or the accuracy of the rifle sniper. Certain firearms have enhancements to enhance their intrinsic characteristics. Frictionless materials (improves stability, reduces the risk of the risk of overheating) and Kinetic coils (increases the projectile's speed to cause more damage) are two examples. The majority of upgrades to weapons require the use of a whetblade, or one of the three Power Dices and a different amount Minerals and Erons. These can be obtained by finishing side quests, taking out a certain number of bosses or monsters, or through the Weapon Upgrade NPC in Central Flarine. The process of upgrading a weapon, equipment Set piece, or Whetblade requires visiting the NPC [Armor] Boboko in Central Flarine and paying her an upgrade price of a certain number of Bars. The higher the upgrade level, the higher the number of bars required to complete it. The cost of upgrading will be lower if have more than one of the relevant upgrade materials. In Chapter 2: Season 5 the way you upgrade weapon and equipment sets has changed. Prior to Chapter 2 Season 5 you could upgrade your weapon or equipment by paying a specific number of Bars. You could do this until you reach a max upgrade level of the equipment or weapon, after which the upgrades would be reset. This is still possible, but it depends heavily on RNG. Instead, you're better off visiting stores and buying equipment with low upgrade levels, but excellent base scores and stat distributions. These items will have a greater likelihood of granting you highest level of blessings and perks. To level up faster, many players prioritise upgrading their weapons. Players should also upgrade the weapons that their squadmates use to make them stronger. For instance, Shepard should consider upgrading the M92F to unlock the Beretta M93R, which will increase its utility when paired with biotic specialists like Grunt and Tali. Jewels Jewels are placed in the sockets of armor and weapons, increasing the stats of a weapon and providing additional effects. Jewelry crafting is a method of making them, where you combine gemstones with specific reagents in a jewelry table. The higher the level of the jewel has, the more powerful its secondary effect. These reagents can be gotten from Treasure Goblins and World Bosses around the world, or through salvaging Legendary Gear. You can also buy them from The Jeweler in exchange for Scattered Prisms and gold. The quality of a jewel can be improved at the Jeweler, in stages that vary from Crude to Royal. The stat boosts can vary depending on the level the jewel is at when it's slotted into jewelry, weapons or equipment. All kinds of jewels can be crafted at the Jeweler and Jeweler's Workshop, with the exception of the rare and legendary gems that require you to be at a certain level to obtain the privilege of having them. In contrast to other upgrade components, jewels can be swapped out with a jewel of the same type without destroying the original one. You can only replace the jewel once within an item of equipment. It is common to use more jewels for aesthetic reasons. In addition to enhancing performance, the jewels create an area that is stronger than metal, so repeated friction from pivots won't cause harm as easily. A Glyphmaster can offer glyphs to improve the look of your shields and weapons. These glyphs offer a small boost and can be freely exchanged, however they are not guaranteed to show up as loot. Glyphs are like jewelry and can be upgraded by the Jeweler to exchange gold and Scattered Crystals. Glyphs can also be removed from the inventory, and they are returned to the inventory. Other upgrade components like aegis or traits cannot be exchanged, and can only be found through an upgrade extractor or salvaging using Black Lion Salvage Kit or an Ascended Salvage. Trinkets Trinkets can provide your hero with various small, but beneficial, advantages. They can be acquired starting in the beginning areas as loot, personal story rewards, from vendors, and through performing road interactions. They may also be crafted by jewelers, and then found or purchased from the Trading Post. The first trinket players can unlock is the cloak. It gives a small but beneficial boost in speed of movement and evasion. The player will then be able to acquire necklaces, amulets, and rings in a similar manner similar to how they obtained weapons and armor. Each piece of gear comes with one upgrade slot that can accommodate either a universal or a jewel upgrade. Universal upgrades provide smaller bonuses and can be placed in any kind of equipment however, jewelry cannot be replaced or upgraded, and only works with certain kinds of trinkets. These trinkets can also grant bonuses and abilities that are active whenever the hero is not fighting. This allows the hero to be more efficient when they are not active. It also helps compensate for the absence of strong team or talent tree slots which would normally be filled by a hero's top stats. In general, trinket upgrades should prioritize BiS (Best in Slot) items you won't replace anytime soon. Next, any items that have desirable statistics aren't as important as the iLevel of the item to be upgraded. This is especially true if an item has multiple stats you'd like to upgrade, as it's often better to upgrade a single important stat than two sub-optimal ones. Jungle players usually upgrade their yellow trinket to a red trinket at the start of the game. Mid and top players however they will select a green or a pink ward, based on the game's matchup. These choices can impact the hero's ability to manage the map. Aside from the items mentioned above, players can discover a variety of other items in the form of trophies and awards. They can be earned by completing certain milestones in the story, like completing a chapter's main quest or killing a certain boss. You can check them out by selecting the achievement from the reward section of the hero's menu.
